Five volunteer members of the staff will be chosen to judge photos on a point scale of 1-100. (This will be done anonymously, so you will not know the judges and they will not know you.) The total combined scores from each judge will be averaged to determine the total points for each photo. The highest scores will determine the winners. The photo with the most points will win the grand prize. The photos with the most points under each category will win first prizes, and so forth. Winners will be announced Friday September 19th, via e-mail and on our website at www.ptcondo.com (under construction). The winning photos will be posted the following week on the bulletin board across from the dry cleaners/receiving room.
